Chap. III.
He graunteth that the Ievves did passe the Heathen Gentils, in Gods benefits, 9 but not
in their ovvne vvorkes. concluding, that he hath shevved, both Ievv and Gentil
to be sinners: 18 and therfore (inferring) that there must be some other vvay
to Saluation, indifferent to both, vvhich is to beleeue in Iesvs Christ,
that for his sake their sinnes may be forgiuen them.
1 What preeminence then hath the Ievv, or what
is the profit of circumcision?
2 Much by al
meanes. First surely because the vvordes of God
vvere c&obar;mitted to them.
3 for vvhat if certaine
of them haue not beleeued? Hath their incredulitie made the
faith of God frustrate?
4 God forbid. but note God is true: &
note note euery man a lyer, as it is vvritten: That thou maiest be iustified in
thy vvordes, and ouercome vvhen thou art iudged.
5 But09Q0962 if our iniquitie
commend the iustice of God, vvhat shal vve say? Is God
vniust that executeth vvrath? (I speake according to man)
6 God forbid othervvise hovv shal God iudge this vvorld?
7 For if the veritie of God hath abounded in my lie, vnto
his glorie, vvhy am I also yet iudged as a sinner,
8 and not
(as vve are blasphemed, and as some report vs to say) let vs
-- --
doe euil, that there may come good? vvhose damnation is
iust.
9 Vvhat then? do vve excel them? No, not so. For vve
haue argued the Ievves and the Greekes, al to be vnder sinne:
10 as it is vvritten: That09Q0963 there is not any man iust,
11 there is not that vnderstandeth,
there is not that seeketh after God.
12 Al haue declined, they are become
vnprofitable together: there is not that doeth good, there is not so much as
one. note
13 Their throte is an open sepulchre, vvith their tonges they dealt deceitefully. note
The venim note of aspes vnder their lippes. note
14 Vvhose mouth is ful
of malediction and bitternes: note
15 Their feete svvift to shede bloud. note
16 Destruction
and infelicitie in their vvaies:
17 and the vvay of peace they haue
not knovven.
18 There is no feare of God before their eies. note
19 And vve
knovv that vvhatsoeuer the Lavv speaketh, to them it speaketh
that are in the Lavv: that euery mouth may be stopped,
and al the vvorld may be made subiect to God:
20 because
note09Q0964 by the vvorkes of the Lavv no flesh shal be iustified
before him. For by the Lavv is the knovvledge of sinne.
21 But novv vvithout the Lavv09Q0965 the iustice of God is manifested:
testified by the lavv and the Prophets.
22 And the
iustice of God by faith of Iesvs Christ, vnto al and
vp&obar; al that note beleeue in him. For there is no distinction.
23 For
al haue sinned: and doe neede the glorie of God.
24 Iustified
note gratis by his grace, by the redemption that is in Christ
Iesvs,
25 vvhom God hath proposed a note propitiation, by
faith in his bloud, to the shevving of his iustice, for the remission
of former sinnes,
26 in the toleration of God, to the
shevving of his iustice in this time: that he may be iust, and
iustifying him that is of the faith of Iesvs Christ.
27 Vvhere is then thy boasting? it is excluded. by vvhat
lavv? of deedes? No, but by the lavv of faith.
28 For vve account
a man to be iustified09Q0966 by faith vvithout the vvorkes
of the Lavv.
29 Is he God of the Ievves only? is he not also
of the Gentiles? Yes of the Gentiles also.
30 For it is one
God, that iustifieth circumcision by faith, and prepuce by
faith.
31 Do vve then destroy the Lavv by faith? God forbid.
but vve do establish the Lavv.
